Joining the Stetson Chapter of Psi Chi

Invitations

Each semester, the Stetson Chapter of Psi Chi invites eligible Psychology majors and minors to join the chapter. Those invited must have met the requirements for membership set by the international organization and the local chapter.

Membership Requirements

To be eligible for membership in the Stetson Chapter of Psi Chi, a student (a) must be a Psychology major or minor, (b) must have earned at least 36 hours of academic credit (three semesters), including at least 3 graded courses of Psychology, (c) must have at least a 3.0 average for all Psychology courses taken, (d) must have an overall academic average that places them in the top 35% of their class (sophomore, junior, or senior).

Students must complete an online application form. The chapter adviser will review the application materials and academic credentials of each candidate. Invitations will be sent (via email) to those candidates who meet the eligibility requirements.

Anyone who feels that he or she meets these requirements but has been overlooked is encouraged to contact either the chapter president or the faculty adviser.

Dues and Registration

Invited candidates must pay the lifetime dues required by the International Chapter and by the Stetson Chapter to be officially registered in Psi Chi.

Induction

Students who have accepted the invitation and paid their local and international dues are inducted in a chapter ceremony at which they receive a certificate of membership. They have a lifetime registration with the International Office of Psi Chi.
